Okay then Ulti, I hope you were expecting at least a bit "Professional" review (I hope I can say that) and detailed descriptions.

Very nice shots, but the editing is terrible

the jumping from one side of axis to another is very unnecessary. What I mean is, having the same shot from left and right, unless something happens that requiers a change of view, then adding a shot from opposite side is wrong.

Fades to black/white are random and you could get rid of them, they bring nothing, at least on the beginning, they're too slow

You jump a lot with perspective, resulting in having a shot that's not very balanced. One time you see a lot of sky, another you have dominating ground. Such shots should be thought through, is there a reason for filming it like that?

Around 0:50 I see the worst shot ever, you've cut the frame ON THE FEET! it's terrible! Never ever do that! Likewise, never cut the shot on the top of heads! Always leave some space.

The editing cuts are too many, it looks more like a videoclip, where everything has to be FAST. CUT CUT CUT CUT. No need for that, you can have similar effect with less cuts and more planning. What comes with that - too much teleporting, in 2:00 and further you just overdid it.

Music is well edited with visuals

I'd go for more makeup like bruises and blood the more you fight.

Acting is pretty good, you don't laugh, you don't make many false moves, it's well prepared, grats on that!

The last and the most terrible thing. Even if the landscape is amazing, THE CARS BEHIND YOU... oh god

there's a street in the background that drives away my attention, and when you do cuts to show somebody teleported, the cars dissappear. Please pay attention to backgrounds. ;D The easiest thing to do is just change the angle of what camera sees.

I loved the kick with turning around on 2:16. Nicely done!

Also even if you are dressed very nicely, your partner in black has terrible shoes. XD

A little bit of hints from a filmschool student

I hope it helps you with making future films. If you ever need advice, give a sign.

You, sir, are a director and all hints are for you. ;]

Aww Piz you could have told him on how to change the background

by rotoscoping the old background out first. Its really quick to do as well

(ok maybe not)

lol. No, not really. It's just easier to prevent that in future. Or, do the green screen

Ulti did say on forums that he wish he had a camera man, but for his second try in editing and making a video i think it's quite good.

I think the fast CUT CUT CUT was meant to resemble something like teleportation out of Dragon ball Z

Or get CS5 when its out they are boasting a new brush that will do it really easily

(believe it when i see it)

KO by lag lol.

I appreciate all the comments. Was the second time I ever filmed anything so I'm a noob at it lol. We didn't have a camera guy, or anyone who did sound or anything. It was just me and the other guy doing everything ^^
And the fading of the black screen, I know I hated that too but I couldn't figure out a way to not have clips start without it (was using movie maker).
And yea when we saw the cars in the background we were like "son of a !!!"

.

I'm learning as I do these but I wanna do more. IRL I can fight, but making a fake, choreographed scene seems harder than to actually do it, cause I need to make it real and not actually beat the other dude into the ground lol.

"Also even if you are dressed very nicely, your partner in black has
terrible shoes." XD -Piz- LMAO -I'll let him know that comment for sure

. Although we won't be dressing up nice with these fights lol, seeing as how the first fight that I made I came home drenched in mud and sand^^

Next fight we are planning is going to be inside a building, and it's going to be more real, like no teleporting and stuff(that was for fun^^). Maybe I'll get him to kick me down a flight of stairs lol. Though I think this one turned out pretty cool even with the mistakes. The teleporting was inspired by street fighter and DBZ that's why I cut them so fast, fast, fast

One thing we edited out that I loved was the real ending because the audio overlapped the speech and I couldn't switch the music off. It was hillarious, a scene that said two days later and the guy in black was dressed as a total nerd and bumps into me on the street dropping his books and glasses then yelling at me
